Q: Is this is a good card for my 2008 Mac Pro?
My originial Nvidia card from my 3,1 early 2008 Mac Pro conked out. Thank God it was only the video card and not a logic board again which I have had replaced twice. With Applecare expired that would have been horrible news.
Anyway, not looking for the baddest or best since not a big gamer anymore. Looking to stay under $150 and also looking for a card that will be highly compatible without any major hassles.
Came across this one and wanted to ask advice here before I buy. It is $119.99 after $20 rebate. Is this a good card that will work out of the box? Haven't shopped for a video card in a long time so completely out of the loop.
EVGA SSC 01G-P4-3652-KR GeForce GTX 650 Ti 1GB
Mac Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

Yes, that's a good card. A compromise of decent performance and price. I have the GTX 650 and it works well for me. The Ti has better performance than mine so you will be happy with it.
